Getting to Clitheroe

By Car

The A59 runs from Preston and the M6 in the west through to Skipton, Harrogate and York to the east. Close by are Blackburn, Whalley, Accrington, Burnley and the towns of the Colne Valley. To the north is Lancaster and you have options of driving through the Forest of Bowland or travelling via the M6.

There are a number of inexpensive car parks right in the town centre at the Market, the Station, Railway View Avenue and along Lowergate. Please see the map below for details.

The car parks on Sundays and in the evenings are free and it's easier to find places along the well lit streets. All the car parks have accessibility spaces and there are some near to or outside the venues. At the Atrium it is possible to drive up to the castle museum as there are accessibility spaces available outside. If you need any further help please let us know. info@rvjazzandblues.co.uk
